Elman Induction – Update

The Key Points to an Elman Induction:

1. It should never last more than 4 minutes – ideally 2- 3 minutes ( before Deepeners – like the Beach, losing your name, Down levels  A to B to C etc)
2. Four Key Parts
   1. Eyes Close and Test
   2. Count to 10 ( or Fractionation)
   3. Arm Drop
   4. Lose the numbers
3. Deepeners – Lose name and down levels A to B , B to C.

A video explaining my adaption of the traditional Elman Induction – shortening it and bringing the ‘language’ up to date.

The Elman Induction is the conerstone of modern Hypnosis Inductions – and I make no structural changes – who needs to! – merely an update from the 1950 tradition

Demo example of an Elman Induction (note never word for word – but the framework always stays the same)

This is in a class – so it takes longer than normal as I stop to make comments. Nevertheless the Induction starts at about 1.50 and finishes at 5.22 – and then I use deepeners – also this includes the beginning of an SP session. By 17 mins we have set up Ideomotor responses and done a first test Regression
